News from Team Discovery

Discovery students have been using a useful website called LearnZillion. LearnZillion is a learning platform that combines video lessons, assessments, and progress reporting. Each lesson highlights a Common Core standard, starting with math in grades 3-9. Students at all different levels find the lessons needed that coincide with their own math goals. These sixth graders, equipped with ear buds, watch an interactive math video with models to review adding and subtracting fractions. After the lesson, they move to guided practice problems.Red Ribbon Week KickoffRed Ribbon Week starts TODAY!
